Hop Wakatu Hall. Aroma (NZ) in pellets T90 in 5 kg bag - This Hallertau Triploid typically has a very restrained floral character which selectors say is atop an
aroma of freshly-zested lime. These excellent brewing qualities carry right through from selection
to the finished beer and it is due, in part to this ability that this hop is selected by several major
brewers internationally. True dual purpose hop with enviable alpha/beta ratio. Measures up on
flavor scores as well as flavor stability trials. Often used in International Premium Lagers.
ORIGIN / HISTORY
New Zealand origin. Developed as an Aroma variety by New Zealand’s HortResearch Hop
Breeding Programme. This triploid was bred from parentage of two-third Hallertau Miitlefrüh open
pollinated by one third New Zealand-derived male. As a small plot trial it showed great potential as
a dual-purpose variety and was released commercially from Hort’s Riwaka Research Centre in
1988.
